Project 1

Hi,

Here I'm submitting my 1st project on Table fan base model.

Procedure followed for core & cavity surface creation of TABLE FAB BASE model :

First, I made the Draft analysis for the given component & verified the the draft angles on the yellow region.
Then, I scaled the component to 1.006(0.6%) as assumed the product as ABS.
Then I created the parting line for the given component by selecting the edge manually.
And I created the shut-off surface, for the open cut out present in the product.
Then I created planar surface along the origin & trimmed the inner surface to create the ‘parting surface’.
Then I created a copy of the parting surface using ‘move/copy bodies’ tool.
And I perform ‘knit surface’ with one of the parting surface and cavity surface & another parting surface and core surface respectively.

Procedure followed for core & cavity block creation of TABLE FAN BASE model :

For the mold block creation, I inserted the surface model into a new assembly.
Then I'm aligned the sprue location to the assembly origin & fixed it.
Then I have created a sketch of a rectangle of 500mm X 500mm in a new part as core steel.
Then I created a copy of the parting surface using 'offset surface' tool.
And I extruded the sketch of the core steel part up to 300mm on both sides.
Then I have used 'cut with surface' tool to create 3d profile on the core block.
For the cavity steel part, I used 'convert entities' as the same sketch created in core steel part.
Then I created a copy of the parting surface using 'offset surface' tool.
And I extruded the sketch of the core steel part up to 300mm on both sides.
Then I have used 'cut with surface' tool to create 3d profile on the cavity block.
Finally, I have assigned the respective colours to the core & cavity blocks individually.

Procedure followed for slider 1 creation of TABLE FAN BASE model :

First I have started with ‘convert entities’ for the through hole & using ‘split’ tool to create slider part in the core block.
Then I have created a rectangle on the top plane & extruded it for slider base.
And created a sketch above the rectangular slider base of 40mm x 35mm & extruded it to 260mm.
Then for creating horizontal path of the slider, extruded the same sketch up to the surface of the part.
Then created the extra projections on the part by extruding it.
And created ‘fillets’ on the slider edges.
Finally, I have saved it as a Parasolid file.

Then inserting the slider into the core & cavity blocks individually for creating the cuts according to the slider block created using 'combine' tool.

For creating bolts & washers, I have created extra stepped cut using 'cut-extrude' tool.
And I have created the tapped holes on the path of the cut using 'hole-wizard' tool & inserting the bolt & washer parts & mated it to the holes respectively.
And I have created the slider locking path in the slider & in the core block by arriving the 90mm travel distance.
Then I have mated M6 bolts and washers accordingly.
Finally, I have assigned yellow colour to the block.

And I have created external cutouts for the slider movement along the core & cavity blocks.

Procedure followed for slider 2 creation of TABLE FAN BASE model :

First I have started with ‘convert entities’ for the through hole & using ‘split’ tool to create slider part in the core block.
Then I have created a rectangle on the top plane & extruded it for slider base.
And created a sketch above the rectangular slider base of 40mm x 35mm & extruded it to 260mm.
Then for creating horizontal path of the slider, extruded the same sketch up to the surface of the part.
Then created the extra projections on the part by extruding it.
And created ‘fillets’ on the slider edges.
Finally, I have saved it as a Parasolid file.

Then inserting the slider into the core & cavity blocks individually for creating the cuts according to the slider block created using 'combine' tool.

For creating bolts & washers, I have created extra stepped cut using 'cut-extrude' tool.
And I have created the tapped holes on the path of the cut using 'hole-wizard' tool & inserting the bolt & washer parts & mated it to the holes respectively.
And I have created the slider locking path in the slider & in the core block by arriving the 90mm travel distance.
Then I have mated M6 bolts and washers accordingly.
Finally, I have assigned yellow colour to the block.

And I have created external cutouts for the slider movement along the core & cavity blocks.

Procedure followed for ejector pins creation of TABLE FAN BASE model :

For creating ejector pins in the core block, created 6mm diameter pin using ‘core’ tool.
Then created reliefs for ejector pins & saved it as a new Parasolid file.
Then insert it as new part into the assembly & save it as ‘ejector pin’.

And here I have submitted my 1^st project.
